  3. Tips from Leslie Kavanaugh to Be More Creative in Your Art

  4. Try New Things One of the main reasons we often feel less creative or run out of ideas is that we don't experiment enough with the ones we do have. You must make things to learn how to become more creative in art and to boost creativity. Begin sketching when you have a whisker of an idea, no matter how basic, or are influenced by something you have been researching or experiencing. Then, try different angles and lighting, and intellectually walk around your subject. As you explore, you will encounter new ideas and creative bursts as a result of your experimentation.

  5. SketchingSketching everything and everyone around you, from your morning tea to your train journey, can help you see the world in a new light. Making this a daily ritual can also help to develop good creative habits, where something becomes a vital part of your day.

  6. Journaling Artists can benefit from writing down their ideas, thoughts, and reactions. Some artists find fulfillment simply by sketching their emotions and reactions, while others gain a better understanding of their experiences by writing them down to process later. To develop creativity, take a journal to a museum and write down your feelings and what catches your eye.

  7. Find a Creative Space Finding a creative space is another way to become more creative in art. Find a place where you experience the urge and need to create, whether it's nature, a studio space, a gallery, or a busy coffee shop. Make sure it's not too distracting, and then settle to work on your creativity and ideas.

  8. Join an Art Group and Ask Questions Contact the artists and ask them questions. Inquire with your peers about how they exercise and develop their creativity. Surrounding yourself with other art lovers and people who share your interests will fuel and push you to learn about and explore different and new aspects of the art world. Keep in mind that experiences serve as fuel for creativity.
